Popis produktu
Castle Dor - Daphne du Maurier A masterful recreation of the legend of Tristan and Iseult, set in 19th century Cornwall.Both a spellbinding love story and a superb evocation of Cornwall's mythic past, Castle Dor is a book with unique and fascinating origins.It began life as the unfinished last novel of Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch, the celebrated 'Q', and was passed by his daughter to Daphne du Maurier whose storytelling skills were perfectly suited to the task of completing the old master's tale.The result is this magical, compelling recreation of the legend of Tristan and Iseult, transplanted in time to the Cornwall of the last century. A chance encounter between the Breton onion-seller, Amyot Trestane, and the newly-wed Linnet Lewarne launches their tragic story, taking them in the fateful footsteps of the doomed lovers of Cornish legend . . .Biographical NotesDaphne du Maurier was born in 1906 and educated at home and in Paris. She began writing in 1928, and many of her bestselling novels were set in Cornwall, where she lived for most of her life. She was made a DBE in 1969 and died in 1989. z kategorie Knihy | Cizojazyčná literatura | English literature | Fiction and Literature | Contemporary Fiction od Little, Brown and Company naleznete ne e-shopu KnihyDobrovsky.cz!
